Big 8 Races Over; 'Pokes on Top
Oklahoma State made their second meeting with arch rivals Oklahoma a championship celebration as the Cowboys rolled over the Sooners, 89-66.
James King and Fred Molder paced the Cowboy attack with 21 and 20 points respectively. The team managed a respectable 57 per cent shooting from the field.
In other action in the Big Eight, the Iowa State Cyclones deprived the Missouri Tigers of a piece of the second place spot when they defeated the Tigers, 78-65, at Ames.
The loss kept Missouri from tying KU for second place and dropped the Tigers into a third place tie with Colorado. Both teams have an 8-6 conference record.
Also active on the boards last night were the Kansas State Wildcats who met the Nebraska Cornhuskers on the Huskers' own court
in Lincoln. K-State played turn-about with the team that defeated them on their home court and downed the Huskers, 79-67.
The Oklahoma State squad, which had cinched their title berth Saturday when they defeated the Jayhawks in Allen Field House, jumped to an early 7-0 lead and they never lost the lead again. The Sooners managed to pull within two points with four minutes gone in the first half. However, the Pokes soon pulled away and for the rest of the game there was no doubt who the winner was.
Bill Whitlock was high man for Oklahoma with 15. The Sooners hit 37.5 per cent for the outside shooting.
In the Missouri contest, MU was tied with the Cyclones at the halfway mark, 39-39. However, for their second half play, the Tigers were
able to connect on only 8 of 50 shots from the field. The performance gave the Missourians a frigid 26 per cent from the field.
The Cyclones were led by Bob Zeigler and Al Koch who dropped in 29 and 21 points respectively. The team hit 31 of 73 tries from the field for 42 per cent.
Top Missouri shooter was George Flamack, who hit 18 points and hauled down 18 rebounds. Dave Fleming led the Cyclones performance on the backboard when he picked off 17.
For the Wildcats in Lincoln, it was a close race. The score was tied five times during the first half before the K-Staters managed to pull ahead on a couple of long shots by Dick Barnard, 22-15. The Wildcats had run their lead to 13 points, 40-27, by the time the half rolled around. The Huskers took the court and
Jayhawk Athletes Join Protest; Switch from Playing to Sitting
The defeat suffered by the Tigers at the hands of Iowa State held the Tigers to the third place tie with Colorado and gave the Cyclones an undisputed fifth place.
Kansas State and Nebraska finished the season with identical conference records after the contest last night. Both teams have 5-9 marks for league play and are tied for sixth and seventh place in the ratings.
The tall figure in the black suit with a black hat tilted slightly on his head stood in the center of Lilac Lane near the front of Blake Hall.
He looked more like he was dressed for a concert than for directing human traffic at a demonstration.
The Oklahoma Sooners finished the season with a 3-11 conference mark for an undisputed hold on the cellar spot.
"Keep moving. You must keep moving." George Unseld told demonstrators as they marched past the chancellor's house last night.
Unseld, Louisville, Ky., senior, is one of the co-chairmen of the Civil
Rights Council. The one-time all-Big Eight basketball player was arrested and jailed earlier in the evening in connection with a demonstration in Strong Hall.
The 6-7 Unseld led the KU basketball team in scoring and rebounding as a sophomore and junior. He was dropped from this year's team after a disagreement with Coach Ted Owens.
Unseld was one of several Negro athletes that participated in yesterday's demonstrations.

NEW YORK—Princeton's Bill Bradley, acclaimed as "the best of the best," led the balloting for Look Magazine's ten-man All-America team, picked by the United States Basketball Writers Association.
The All-America selections, made by the writers' nine-man national awards committee representing the eight NCAA districts, were announced Monday in Look.
The All-America team is as follows: John Austin, Boston College; Rick Barry, Miami (Fla.); Bill Bradley, Princeton; A.W. Davis, Tennessee; Wayne Estes, Utah State; Gail Goodrich, UCLA; Fred Hetzel, Davidson; Clyde Lee, Vanderbilt; Cazzie Russell, Michigan; Dave Stallworth, Wichita.
"With the exception of Oscar Robertson, Bradley probably deserves the rating a majority of experts have accorded him: the greatest all-around player the colleges have yet produced," Look declared.
Stallworth won All-America recognition as "the standout of the tough Missouri Valley Conference," although he played only 16 of Wichita's 26 scheduled games, his eligibility having run out on January 30.
Estes, accidentally killed on the night of February 8 when he brushed against a high-voltage wire in the dark, was the first player ever voted All-America honors posthumously.

pumped in 11 counters to the Wildcats' three. However, with the Nebraska crew within five points, K-State opened up their big guns of Ron Smith, Dennis Berkholtz, Sam Robinson and Jeff Simons for a barrage that swamped the Huskers.
The team will practice today tomorrow, and Thursday at the same time on the intramural fields.
The Rugby Club hold their first spring game on March 28. The Jayhawk squad will face the University of Missouri at Raleigh team at Lawrence.
Jack Paar, former K-State two-time All-America basketball player and Big Eight official, will speak at 7:15 Wednesday night in the College Life series sponsored by the Campus Crusade for Christ.
On April 3 the KU Club will play the St. Louis University team at Lawrence. The team will travel to St. Louis on April 17 for a 16-team tournament. The tournament will include a banquet and dance for the players.
The next action for the Oklahoma State squad is Friday when they travel to Manhattan for the N.C.A.A. regionals. They finished with a 12-2 conference record.
Paar, a member of the Fellowship of Christian Athletes, will speak on his experience in college and how he found a more vital personal faith.
The meeting will be at the Sigma Chi fraternity house, 1439 Tenn.
Nate Sims, Pasadena, Calif., senior a former trackman, is one of the CRC co-chairmen.
Walt Wesley, Fort Meyers, Fla., junior, all-Big Eight basketball selection and top conference scorer, was everything but unnoticeable as he moved his 6-11 frame in step with other demonstrators.
Al Lopes, Providence, R.I., junior, another member of the Jayhawk basketball team, was another marcher.
Gale Sayers, Omaha, Neb. senior and all-America football halfback, was jailed for his participation in the demonstrations in Strong Hall. Other KU athletes spotted among the demonstrators were football players Sims Stokes, Mobile, Ala. junior; Mike Shinn, Topeka senior, and George Harvey, Parsons junior, and former basketball player Pete Townsend.
RADNOR, Pa.—Snake hunts have become big business, thanks to TV. And other off-beat and little-known sports events that formerly attracted only limited or regional interest have suddenly become conscious of television—and money, TV Guide magazine has reported.
TV Falls Prey To Small Sports In Money Grab
Events ranging from horseshoe matches to canoeing and parachute-jumping contests often were worth only a few sticks of type in area newspapers a few years ago. Now, television has spread their fame and the TV rights fees have jumped considerably.
Roone Arledge, vice president in charge of sports for ABC television, pointed out that last year the three networks received a form letter from a table-tennis group announcing that it would accept sealed bids at a special place and time for TV coverage of its championship.
"Three years ago," said Bill MacPhail, sports vice-president for CBS, "a certain sports group not only offered us its event free, but volunteered to pay the line charges. Today, it is asking $50,000." MacPhail would not identify the event.

Adventures of James Bomb
James Bomb adjusted his morocean shoulder holster, activated the 5.000-watt signal sender hidden in his upper molar, filled his shoes with plastic explosives and left his penthouse to meet his contact, Sylvia.
After receiving two traffic tickets for accidently covering the street with an oil-slick and tacks, Bomb arrived at Sylvia's apartment building. Suspecting the elevator cables to be cut, the stairs mined and the desk clerk to be a red agent, Bomb scaled the outside wall to the 25th floor. Quietly shattering a plate glass window, Bomb stepped into the living room and said, "Good evening my dear; have you a band-aid?"
Sylvia replied, "Come in James; do you have the documents with you?"
"Yes," said Bomb, "somewhere in one of the several hundred secret drawers in my attache case."
"We must have them," sobbed Sylvia, "Plan X to improve college wardrobes is set to begin MARCH 17."
Bomb, trying desperately to find the right secret button, looked up into Sylvia's eyes, "Why is it called plan X?" he asked, a faint smile crossing his lips.
"Why not?" grinned Sylvia.
Bomb thought a moment, then said, "Why not call it plan J?" "After you James?" said Sylvia, her heart pounding.
"No," said Bomb, after the originator of this fantastic plan J C. PENNEY!"
